Discussions About Being Bald > Sly Bald Gals - Women's Corner
Any other chicas around?

Hey, all—
I actually landed here because I was shopping for clipper advice. I'm a buzzer (no guard!), not a shaver, and I have burned out my second Wahl HomePro clipper, so I was thinking I'd invest a bit more in the next set and was hoping to find a thread on the site about recommended models—you know, reviews written by folks who buzz their heads a couple times a week, not moms who run kitchen beauty salons. ;)
But then I saw you had a women's corner and got all distracted. Whee! This is exciting—even if it looks like the most recent posts from buzzed or shaved women are from at least a few months back. Are any other women still about to make a buzzed chica feel less lonely in her preferred personal aesthetic? (It's also gratifying to see the sly guys giving positive props to the bald ladies; man, there aren't enough of you independent thinkers out there!)

Hey Chica, I'm not a chica, but as far as a solid pair of clippers to cut your hair, Wahl is pretty solid. Check out Andis, as well. They make good one. Andis T Liners are great for a close buzz.

Hey Chica,
No, not a chica either, another gringo here. I've been using my Oster A5s for over twenty years. You can buy the A5 or Oster 76 for ~$125 and up. When I buzzed my head I used the Oster 000 or Oster 0000 blades.
These clippers are commercial quality and will last a very long time.

Awesome, thanks for the advice, guys. I don't even have to cross-post my clipper question to the appropriate forum!

Hola Chica, just another Gringo cara palida here! Welcome to the site.
I don't know what others here think, but when I was buzzing, I used the Conair clippers. I never spent more than $25 for them and a pair would last anywhere from a year and a half to 2 years. I still use them once a week on the goatee. If you make sure you clean them completely and lubricate the blades they should last a long time, and I don't mean just brushing off the hair, I mean actually pullimg off the two screws on the blade and cleaning the head completely.
Anyway, good luck with that and post up some pics if you can!
